mipiace, the only out-of-stater who is TOO BIG for Texas! 
6 have you bought those crayons yet?
Well as appealing as that sounds there was no bodice ripping. We were ONLY friends. The guy was the one I sent the photo of a few pages back and we were wearing leathers so it would have been difficult to rip anything off. Alpine lunches were generally in scenic little restaurants and generally with a group of other people on bikes. It’s a popular thing to do On the weekends in Europe and yeah I have to admit riding the Alps on a Ducati is pretty amazing. Riding on the back with a hot guy in leathers is pretty amazing too even if he is only a friend. 
No, car payment and school loans due…
But I thought you were livin’ large? What happened to all those profit margins phat daddy?
Well, it’s almost 10:30 and I’m still not at work…
Well THAT must be nice!!! I should get a job like that.
Everyone should have an insanely great job as mine!
Hey it’s 11 here and we’re all still in our jammies… that’s gotta count for something!
If it weren’t for the need for groceries and diapers we would never leave the house! My kids are going to be hard pressed to answer the ‘what do your parents do’ question when they start school…
Um mommy reads the straight dope and feeds us and stuff and daddy plays on the computer and stuff…
Well, I doubled the amount read in my book yesterday without getting caught by any of the drs and none of the costomers could see my book over the counter. Got paid yesterday even. 
Are you sick again 6?
If I didn’t like you so much I’d hate you for saying that.:dubious: bleh! Job happiness?..I know of no such emotion…no wait, I did when I worked around cute guys in flight suits and had a bar under my desk. That was pretty sweet. Not now!!
LOL yeah, that sounds about right
I…I…I don’t remember angry rabbits… I remember several pages on the appropriateness of number and type of flowers, How many calls is considered stalking, even what’s the best six cyl engine, but I don’t remember angry rabbits. (Well except as it pertains to the Python quote about the Holy Hand Grenade. But I don’t think the Vorpal Rabbit was mentioned even then… Enlighten (or remind) me.
That’s just fine, but in my mind there’s bodice ripping.
Hummmmm I’ve still got some leathers, is it Ok if in YOUR mind I’m a hot guy?
Whoo! Hoo! Hang onto your hats folks. It’s showtime. Just got the e-mail announcing 20% cut in salary positions, starting immediately. One person in five will be gone. I’m looking for four losers to hang out with. I’m leaving for our weekly seance with all the other computer guys in this plant (we get together chant, and try to call up spirits of all the dead operating systems we currently use). Hope my stuff is still here when I get back
Holy Snikey’s Zen…is it contagious in here? I’m sorry, I think I started this virus with my RIF notice a couple months ago. DAMN, we are all getting the axe at once. We are going to have to start this band quick and play for money.
And of course Zen, wear leathers, you can be my hot guy. lets go ride the Alps this Sunday. I don’t care if you are employed or not.
[Sally Fields]You like me! You really like me![/sf]
Zen, no need to lobbest thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch… angry rabbit is some kind of s/m device. You’ll have to ask White Ink (?) about it. I didn’t get it myself.
Oh, NOooooooo… my brilliant post!!!
Dang newly fattened hamsters!
Try again…i want to see you be brilliant.
** If6**Ah right, right, the fur covered flogger. Now I remember
mipiace Great, I’ll bring the bike, and maybe arrange for a picnic in the scenic mountain clearing. Of course you have to promise to wear the perforated leather (for easier bodice ripping) and promise not to break into the [Julie Andrews] The hills are alive with the sound of music[/JA]
Although come to think of it you singing that wearing leathers shot from overhead as you twirl about is rather fetching… LOL Wait a second it’s not about the singing, it’s about you in the leather And I appreciate you letting me be the hot guy.
So The cuts won’t actually begin until next week. Giving everyone the weekend to stew about it. I’m not really to concerned, although I probably should be <shrug> Oh well. More updates as warranted
IIRC, an angry rabbit is a strap of leather that is soft and furry on one side. Spank with the leather side, soothe with the furry side. Z’at right White Ink?
Wyatt being brilliant… Ah that’s nothing new.
Sigh oh, I can’T I just Can’t …
My spirit is broken … Broken I’ll tell you… you’ll just have to imagine my most brilliant work to date!!!
Oh, sigh the humanity of it all!
I Just Can Not Work like this!!!
